Local Manchester restaurant Dishoom is inviting guests of all faiths to gather for a generous and flavourful Iftar feast with them for Ramadan this month.

Ramadan is observed throughout March this year, taking place in the ninth month of the Islamic calendar as a month of fasting, prayer, reflection and community leading up to the celebration of Eid al-Fitr.

A tradition of Ramadan is fasting between dawn and sunset with the breaking of one's fast shared with loved ones.

Dishoom’s chef-wallas will prepare café classics and Iftar specials daily to share the traditions of Ramadan with all.

The Iftar Feasting Menu costs £35 per person and features snacks such as Keema Pau and Okra Fries, grills including Chicken Tikka and Tandoori Chaat and biryanis, followed by the Iftar special dish of Daal Gosht & Laccha Paratha - a slow-cooked, tender lamb leg served in daal and with a pillowy paratha and tangy mixed pickle.

Medjool dates will also be available for those breaking their fast in-café or waiting in the queue.
